Remove the Loom watermark

How to remove the Loom watermark (and why Pullsy never adds one).

Everything Loom charges for — free.

The first time you sent a client a Loom video and they replied "what's Loom?" — or worse, replied about the actual content — you felt the watermark before you could name it. It's not just a logo. It's a brand you didn't choose telling your viewer what tool you used, which is shorthand for "this is what I'm willing to invest in to talk to you."

Loom stamps that watermark on every free-tier recording. It sits in the share-page chrome and in the bottom-right corner of the video itself. Removing it costs $18/user/mo on Loom Business. Pullsy never adds one — recordings are clean on every tier, free included.

Where the Loom watermark actually costs you money.

Most watermark complaints are abstract. Here are four concrete situations where the Loom badge on your video changes the outcome.

Client work — sending a walkthrough to a prospect

What happens:

You recorded a 6-minute demo of the new onboarding flow for a prospect you've been chasing for three weeks. They click the link. The video opens with the Loom logo and a "made with Loom — record yours now" badge in the corner.

Why it hurts:

The prospect is reading the badge more than the demo. "Loom" reads as "free tool, freelance budget, somebody's side project." If you wanted to charge $4,000 for the engagement, you've already undercut yourself with the share-page chrome.

Fix:

Record in Pullsy. No watermark on any recording. Pro tier (~€9/mo) lets you put the share page on your own domain so it lives at videos.youragency.com instead of pullsy.online.

Course / tutorial content

What happens:

You built a 6-hour screen-recording course and uploaded the videos to your school platform. Every video opens with the Loom logo and a "click here to record your own Loom" badge.

Why it hurts:

Your students screenshot the badge and DM you asking "what is Loom, should I sign up?" You become the de facto Loom reseller for your course. Worse, the badge sits in frame for the whole video — including the close-ups of code and spreadsheets — and looks like a demo tape.

Fix:

Pullsy free, no watermark, no badge. The recording is just the recording. Use the Ask-this-video feature so students can ask follow-up questions in the video itself.

Agency account manager → enterprise client

What happens:

You're an agency and one of your account managers sent a 14-minute recap to a Fortune 500 procurement contact. The recap walks through deliverables, decisions, next steps. It opens with the Loom logo.

Why it hurts:

Procurement reads the badge and thinks "this is the kind of tool a junior BA uses on their lunch break." Whether or not that's true, the agency now has to do extra work to project senior-client-grade. The watermark is doing the opposite of what a brand should do.

Fix:

Pullsy Pro with a custom domain. The share link is on your agency's domain, there is no Pullsy logo in the share-page chrome, and the recording itself carries no watermark. The procurement contact sees a video from your brand, not from a third-party tool.

Recorded meeting → board or executive team

What happens:

You recorded a board update for someone who couldn't attend and shared the link in the executive Slack.

Why it hurts:

Directors watch the Loom logo sit in the corner for 12 minutes and draw their own conclusions about how seriously your team takes its tooling. It's a small thing, but small things at the executive level compound.

Fix:

Record in Pullsy, share the link. No watermark on the recording, no Loom brand on the share page. If your company already has a workspace or a standard tool, Pullsy Pro sits on your own domain.

Watermark and branding: Loom vs Pullsy.

Feature Loom Free Pullsy Free
Watermark on free recordings Yes — visible badge in share page + branded intro No watermark on any recording
Watermark position on the recording itself Bottom-right corner throughout playback None — recording is clean
Cost to remove watermark Loom Business (~$18/user/mo) Already free
Share-page chrome (logo, "sign up" button) Yes, Loom-branded Small "made with Pullsy" link — Pro removes it
Custom domain for share pages Business tier Pro tier (~€9/mo)
Local export of the recording file No on free tier Yes — the browser already has the file

No watermark — at any tier.

Pullsy does not stamp a watermark on any recording — free, Pro, or Team. The only branding on a free recording is a small "made with Pullsy" link in the share-page chrome (the page the viewer sees around the video), not on the video itself. Pro removes the link and lets you put the share page on your own custom domain so it lives at videos.yourcompany.com.

Unlimited recording length.

Loom's 5-minute cap forces you to chunk client deliverables — a 14-minute walkthrough becomes three separate Looms with a hard stop in the middle of your explanation. Pullsy has no length cap, so the recording is one continuous file and one share link.

Private by default.

Pullsy recordings are unlisted by default — only people with the link can see them, and the link is not indexed. There's no public gallery, no "trending recordings" page, no algorithm pushing your video to strangers. Delete the recording and it's gone.

Frequently asked questions

Can I trim the Loom watermark out of an existing Loom video?

Not without re-encoding and losing quality. The watermark sits in the share-page chrome, which is overlaid by Loom's player — it's not burned into the source video. If you need a clean copy of a Loom recording, /tools/loom-to-mp4/ converts the share link to an MP4 file you can download and re-host. The downloaded MP4 is the recording itself, not the Loom player.

Does Pullsy ever add branding or a watermark?

Pullsy does not stamp a watermark on any recording — free, Pro, or Team. The only branding is a small "made with Pullsy" link in the share-page chrome (visible to viewers, not burned into the recording). The Pro tier removes that link and lets you put the share page on your own custom domain.

Is it legal to remove a watermark from someone else's video?

That depends on who owns the video and where it's posted. The Loom watermark is the platform's branding; removing it from a recording you made on Loom's free tier is generally a normal act of using your own content, but re-uploading it elsewhere may violate Loom's terms of service. This page is about sending clean videos you record yourself in a tool that doesn't stamp a watermark to begin with — not about removing watermarks from other people's content.

What about social media — TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn?

Pullsy recordings are clean video files with no watermark baked in. You can upload them to TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn, or anywhere else. The share page is a separate thing from the underlying recording — the recording is yours, no branding.

What if my team has always used Loom and we don't want to switch?

You don't have to switch everything at once. Many teams use Pullsy for client-facing videos (no watermark) and keep Loom for internal async updates. The two tools record to separate share links — there's no import or migration required. Run both in parallel for a month and see which one your team actually prefers for which job.
